Sant' Ilario is a novel written by F. Marion Crawford. The story revolves around Prince Ferrante, a young Italian nobleman who falls in love with a beautiful American heiress named Miss Annette Despard. However, their love is challenged by the societal norms and expectations of their respective countries. As the story progresses, Ferrante becomes embroiled in a political conspiracy that threatens his family's honor and reputation. He must navigate the complex web of Italian politics and alliances to protect his loved ones and restore his family's name. Meanwhile, Annette faces her own challenges as she struggles to adapt to Italian culture and win the approval of Ferrante's family. She must also confront the reality of the class divide between them and the obstacles it poses to their relationship. With vivid descriptions of Italian landscapes and customs, Sant' Ilario is a captivating tale of love, intrigue, and societal expectations in 19th century Italy.The idea of a sudden journey, terminating in the gloomy fortress of Saracinesca, was pleasant to his humour. The old place was ten times more grim and dismal in winter than in summer, and in his savage mood he fancied himself alone with his wife in the silent halls, making her feel the enormity of what she had done, while jealously keeping her a prisoner at his mercy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
